About this trial
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible blindness in industrialized countries and affects tens of millions of people worldwide, with a rapidly increasing prevalence. It causes irreversible central vision loss and significant difficulties in daily activities, impairing patients' quality of life and independence. Conventional clinical assessments, which focus on visual acuity and retinal imaging, do not fully reflect the functional impact of the disease.
Virtual reality (VR) makes it possible to create immersive, controlled environments to accurately measure functional vision and simulate real-life situations. The study proposes to develop a standardized and reproducible functional test in virtual reality that can complement conventional examinations and support clinical and industrial research.

Ability to comply with the requirements of the protocol
Disqualifiers
Pregnant women, women in labor, or breastfeeding women

Trial design
Single group
Treatments tested in this trial
Object recognition and selection task
Other interventionThe Sight Performance Object Task (SPOT) is a virtual reality (VR) based assessment designed to measure the object recognition and selection capabilities. It functional vision by replicating the real-world challenge of "finding things" under controlled environmental conditions.
